Housing The 1,237 square foot show home is based on a typical Habitat for Humanity floor plan, with the exterior elevations modified to reflect more of the middle American style to broaden the visual appeal. The interior of the home will be a large open space during the shows, with no interior framing, in order to achieve an “art gallery” look. Visitors to the home will be able to viewdisplays of other types of concrete wall systems, such as insulating concrete forms, concrete masonry and cast-in-place removable forms. |
The interior floors of the Count on Concrete Home will be of acid-stained concrete, with concrete pavers being utilized for outside landscaping. The entire home was constructed in five days. Following the trade shows, the home will be dismantled and re-assembled as a Habitat for Humanity home in Henderson, Nevada. Interior partition walls will be added to form the floor plan shown above. |
